Hey, you seem to be lacking in gaming memorabilia swag. Well with a little bit of luck and some bribery, you could actually end this week with some neat prizes that all bear the logo of Ubisoft’s latest open-world game, The Crew 2!
The Division 2 is being touted as a single and multiplayer experience, so just how much of its content will actually be open to solo play? It's not exactly clear.
A lot of lessons were learnt during the days of The Division, not the least of which was focused on how to keep players around long after the end credits had rolled. Lessons which are clearly being applied to The Division 2: Electric Boogaloo.
Half the fun with guessing what the next Assassin’s Creed game will be about, is guessing when it’ll take place. There’s a certain joy in reliving history, especially when you’re the one that happens to be wielding a hidden blade at famous historical figures. Why settle on just one time period though?

Because thanks to our fab friends over at Megarom Interactive, we’ve got a snazzy hamper to give away for The Crew 2.
No matter the element, The Crew 2 is a fantastic vehicle in which to master the ins and outs of speed. It’s just a pity that Ubisoft’s new world of varied racing disciplines feels hollow and uneven as it won’t hold your attention for very long.
If there’s any single mega games publisher and developer who’s been able to stretch the longevity of its retail, non-subscription games beyond the usual lifecycle, it’s Ubisoft. Sure, Rockstar’s kept GTA V going far longer than any single game should, but there are many Ubisoft games that still draw in millions of players – and it’s all because the company continues to supports its games.
